Modifying a blu-ray player to be region free is COMPLETELY legal and if you can cite a specific statute, since you still want to argue this, please do so.
There isn't one.
Region free coding is a COMMERCIAL LICENSING issue - it's contractual between the licensor of the Blu-Ray patents and the manufacturers who are licensees. If a manufacturer violates that agrteement, it is a contractual breach which would bring civil penalities if litigated.
There is NO contract between the patent licensor and the consumer. The consumer is perfectly free to do what they want with their players in terms of modifying them to be region free.
Funny that a person who claims to be a Blu-Ray "Reviewer" knows so little and continues to argue a simple, incorrect position.
